August- the Penthouse Suite... I was invited to a deal such as you are planning. John Besh was there to serve too... pretty cool. Bayona is great too but August has the edge for a corporate event.

And I don’t mean the usual suspects like Ruth’s, Crescent City or (it’s godawful) Charley’s or the new places like Mr. John's or John Besh's. What about lesser known places like Beef Connection (still...

I want to try John Besh's recipe for rabbit, but I’ve never cooked rabbit before. It says I need 3 rabbits (or 1 1/2 b/c I’m cutting it in half). The rabbits are to be quartered. I have seen (frozen) rabbit at our...

. Also, GW Fins has a private dining room, and it comes highly recommended. Have never done an event there, so I only have experience with the restaurant. I know that Chef John Besh's Restaurant August has their “wine...

I would definitely recommend Ashley’s at the Capital Hotel. It is in a hotel, but not “good hotel”, but great food. The chef was a James Beard semifinalist and worked as chef’d cuisine at August in New...

I was there about 2 weeks ago and it was excellent. It definitely tasted like John Besh food in terms of flavor combinations, but was more down-to-earth than August. The chicken liver pate that you get with corn pones as a sort of...

. Bacco told us that Red Fish Grill had Creole cheesecake as I had to have it again after having it at Irene’s. It was okay, nothing like Irene’s. Friday, 1/12/07 – Lunch at Riche again. John Besh sat down next to us after we...

August is beautiful and the food is divine. I recommend the tasting menu and wine pairing. You will have plenty to eat and a fine sampling of chef John Besh's flair for food. Chef John Besh was a big player in the early days...

and John Besh is the chef . He is part owner of Luke but not the chef as was pointed out elsewhere in this board

jazzyb recommended afew chefs but i would say you can take jamie shannon off the list since hes been dead for around 5 years. there are quite afew cia alumni working here, among them is john besh, scott boswell, bob iacovone and...

). john Besh does amazing things with pork and dishes that are traditionally heavy he turns out light. The sous chef (Gallati) is wonderful and keeps Besh's restaurant running amazingly well! The the corn and cheese agnolti (?sp)...

are missing. Does anybody have any suggestions? We looked at the John Besh restaurants but those menus didn’t sound too appealing to us. Please help and thanks.

Restaurant Iris is phenominal and Chef Kelly English studied under John Besh in New Orleans. Here’s the website, check it out: http://www.restaurantiris.com/

In another post they listed the scores from the judges: all 3 Iron Chefs voted for Symon, and so did Rulmann among the guest judges. Donatella and Aaron voted for John Besh. So I think it was quite clear that for the final battle...

Just saw the show here...nothing happened to change my mind with John Besh and Michael Symon as the two favorites. Aaron Sanchez and Chris Cosentino have the skills but the pressure definitely removes any layers of...
